Drunk testimonials
Published: Thu, 10/11/18
I left his name out because I don’t believe in punishing good behavior. And, yes, drunk emailing me a testimonial counts as good behavior.
Truth serum and all that…
Anyway, behold:

Hey Ben, I just came from my friend's Birthday party. To be honest I m drunk. I don't even know how I am typing correctly. I guess it's auto correction on my smartphone. Well the real reason I am writing this email is that I am very grateful for your emails. I mean I learnef a lot of things by your emails. There are only few copywriters in this world that are keeping the art of persuasion alive.

Ah yes… props.
Drunk, sober, or butchered spelling… elBenbo takes his props where he can get ‘em.
And you know what?
You should, too.
It astonishes me how few people utilize testimonials in their emails.
Especially dramatic ones.
(Like someone who’s intoxicated giving you a testimonial.)
Anyway, beverage for thought.
And, speaking of testimonials:
This morning, I sent an email (see the P.S. below) offering the October "Troll" issue of "Email Players" to anyone who subscribes before 6:30 a.m. tomorrow (Friday, October 12th PST).
A couple replies to that ditty are below.
"Email Players" subscriber Bill W. said:
"Anyone not taking you up on this offer is a f'ing idiot! That issue was the BOMB! I "modeled" one of the emails and put 4 butts in a $1997 seat in a couple of hours after I hit "send."
And "Email Players" subscriber Fotis C said (about how he used the info in a post):
"People liked/reacted to my post. I had 10 opt-ins (I usually have 3-5) And 2 people invested in my one time offer. Not bad for 2 minutes of work."
He then added a few seconds later:
"add one sign up to my monthly newsletter in those 10 opt-ins - just came in."
I ain't just whistlin' dixie when I say there are two types of people in the world:
1. Those who profit from trolls & personal attacks
2. Those who don't
To get the details on the offer I made this morning, go here lickety split:

Subject line: 1 helpful SOB in a world of trolls
Yesterday, “Email Players” subscriber Nick A told Yours Trolly:

Ben. . .
You helpful son of a bitch!
So after receiving your “troll edition” of the email players newsletter. I put it to work!
I have a large following online so trolls are par for the course, as you well know.
After sending out my troll email. My inbox became filled with replies from real fans and netted a ton of sales in the first couple of hours.
Besides the additional income provided by the emails. My fans and followers meet me in person and talk about my emails and how entertaining and helpful they are. This never happened before adopting the "Settle" way of emails.
So in a world full of trolls. Just sending some positive vibes your way.
Keep doing your thing brother!
- Nick

I don’t do the following often.
But, when an issue gets an unusually positive response from multiple people *applying* the info, I sometimes open up a 24-hour period after the deadline to get it.
This is one of those cases.
So, here is the deal:
The deadline to get the October issue was September 3oth.
But, for the next 24 hours from the sending of this email (6:30 am PST), I will allow anyone who wants in on this special October “Profiting From Trolls” issue — complete with the bonus Troll-Response email swipe file and other enclosures — get it.
This is a hard deadline.
If you are seeing this after the deadline, you’re out of luck.
If you subscribe after the deadline, you’re out of luck.
(As far as getting the October issue, at least.)
You have until 6:30 am tomorrow (Friday, October 12th) PST (i.e. California) time.
The clock is officially ticking.
Get you’re troll love here:
